Each maloccluded tooth is given a value of 1 while tooth in perfect occlusion is given a score of 0. A score of 0 will indicate a perfect occlusion; score of more than 10 would be classified as sufficient severity that would require orthodontic treatment; score between 1 and 9 would be classified as normal occlusion in which no orthodontic ...
FDI Notation, teeth's quadrants FDI World Dental Federation notation (also "FDI notation" or "ISO 3950 notation") is the world's most commonly used dental notation (tooth numbering system). [ 1 ] [ 2 ] It is designated by the International Organization for Standardization as standard ISO 3950 "Dentistry — Designation system for teeth and ...
Pressure angles. Pressure angle in relation to gear teeth, also known as the angle of obliquity, [1] is the angle between the tooth face and the gear wheel tangent. It is more precisely the angle at a pitch point between the line of pressure (which is normal to the tooth surface) and the plane tangent to the pitch surface.
The uppercase letters A through T are used for primary teeth and the numbers 1 – 32 are used for permanent teeth. The tooth designated "1" is the maxillary right third molar ("wisdom tooth") and the count continues along the upper teeth to the left side. Then the count begins at the mandibular left third molar, designated number 17, and ...
A minimum root-crest clearance of 0.01 in (0.25 mm) (diametral) between opposing threads with 10 tpi (threads-per-inch) or fewer, and 0.005 in (0.13 mm) for finer pitches. (This is also true for the minor diameters of the Centralizing Acme thread, though not its major diameters, where the allowance is made less than the PD allowance.)
Threads per inch (TPI) for taps, die heads and threading tools. Cut Width. Any time the width of cut is less than half the diameter, a geometric phenomenon called Chip Thinning reduces the actual chipload. Feedrates need to be increased to offset the effects of chip thinning, both for productivity and to avoid rubbing which reduces tool life.
The Diametral Pitch (DP) is the number of teeth per inch of diameter of the pitch circle. The units of DP are inverse inches (1/in). [3] DP = Diametral Pitch PD = Pitch Circle Diameter in inches CP = Circular Pitch in inches n = Number of Teeth DP = n / PD The Diametral Pitch (DP) is equal to π divided by the Circular Pitch (CP). DP = 3.1416 / CP
Meshing of two spur gears with involute external teeth. z 1 = 20, z 2 = 50, α = 20°, x 1 = x 2 = 0, ISO 53:1998. The lower (green) gear is the driving one. The line of contact, which is the locus of all teeth contact points, is shown in blue. The contact points are highlighted with bold black dots; either one pair or two pairs of teeth can be ...
